Re: [Gnso-bylaws-dt] [Ext] Re: For your review - Staff Report Bylaws & GNSO Operating Procedures Proposed Revisions & Legal Review
To facilitate this process and make the document a bit more manageable, I’ve lifted out the table, grouped the questions and legal assessment together and created a separate column for DT input and a DT response. Of course, if there any other elements that need further consideration, apart from the issues identified in the executive summary, please feel free to add these to the table. Those that have not provided their input yet, please feel free to add to the table or send it to the list.

The GNSO Council requests that ICANN Legal evaluate whether the proposed modifications are consistent with the post-transition Bylaws and report their findings to the GNSO Council’. In the analysis of the DT recommendations, staff took a minimalist approach by focusing on the minimum changes needed to implement the DT recommendations. However, in undertaking this work, staff did identify a number of questions and made a number of assumptions that it is requesting the DTs input on before this document and the revised ICANN Bylaws and GNSO Operating Procedures are published for public comment. You will find these questions and assumptions outlined in the attached document (in pdf and word version). To facilitate your review, the main questions have been flagged in the table contained in the executive summary. We realise that there may be little time for you to review this document ahead of ICANN58 but we hope you are available to join us for the session that has been scheduled on Wednesday 15 March from 17.00 – 18.30 local time (see http://sched.co/9nqV[sched.co]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__sched.co_9nqV&d=DwMGaQ&c=FmY1u3PJp6wrcrwll3mSVzgfkbPSS6sJms7xcl4I5cM&r=7_PQAir-9nJQ2uB2cWiTDDDo5Hfy5HL9rSTe65iXLVM&m=ygolKFrVoIkq3BVEkIfyXciZI8RNWsz4SPF-sGh5P-8&s=AzzM0_nincrMVSrNyCyT_v6k7uJxSZOp8xtk_XxR48c&e=> for further details). This session is intended to walk you through our questions and assumptions as well as answer any questions you may have. The DT can also discuss how to proceed following ICANN58 to develop its input on these questions and assumptions which will then allow staff to finalise the documents for publication for public comment.
